At 29 years old, entrepreneur Kylie Jenner is poised to transition into a leading acting role, taking on the lead character in the upcoming Hulu series "Bachelorette Weekend", a dramatic suspense series currently in development. This marks a significant departure from her origins in reality television, where she gained international recognition, and represents her first starring role in a scripted dramatic series.
A new production is underway, details of which have been disclosed by Deadline, a specialized media outlet. The project is being developed by screenwriter and author Lauren Oliver, who is drawing inspiration from an unpublished manuscript penned by New York-based writer Flora Collins.
A weekend gathering among friends takes a devastating turn when the girlfriend, portrayed by Jenner, is found dead in the pool area of the residence, setting the stage for a mystery that unfolds throughout the narrative. Although her character meets an untimely demise at the outset, her presence continues to be pivotal in piecing together the events and identifying the perpetrator among a group of suspects.
Kylie's acting debut is backed by her sister Kim Kardashian, a prominent figure in the American entertainment industry. Following her review of the original screenplay, Kardashian identified the lead role as a suitable fit for Kylie and encouraged her to take on the acting challenge.
The project will be executive produced by both sisters, in association with 20th Television, a subsidiary of the Disney group and parent company of Hulu. This partnership is also supported by a preferential audiovisual development agreement with Kimi.
The founder of Kylie Cosmetics, accustomed to a life of focus since childhood and boasting a significant social media following of over 380 million, is now embarking on a new chapter in her career.
Kylie Jenner makes her formal drama genre debut in the film "Bachelorette Weekend," following a brief appearance in the 2026 mockumentary "The Moment," which was directed by Charli XCX.
